Calculus : Tangent Line and Normal Line

Find the equation of the normal to the curve $ \displaystyle y = 1 - x^2$ at the point where the curve crosses the positive $ \displaystyle x$-axis. Find also the coordinates of the point where the normal meets the curve again.  

$ \displaystyle y = 1 - x^2$ ဆိုတဲ့ curve α€€ ထေပါင္း $ \displaystyle x$ ၀င္႐ိုးα€€ို ျဖတ္α€žြားတဲ့ ေα€”α€›ာα€™ွာ α€›ွိတဲ့ normal line equation α€€ို α€›ွာေပးပါ။ ၎ normal line α€€ curve α€€ို ေα€”ာα€€္ တစ္α‚€α€€ိα€™္ ျဖတ္α€žြားတဲ့ ထမွတ္α€€ိုα€œα€Š္း α€›ွာေပးပါ။ 

Curve α€€ $ \displaystyle x$ ၀င္႐ိုးα€€ို $ \displaystyle y=0$ ျα€–α€…္တဲ့ ေα€”α€›ာα€™ွာ ျဖတ္တာေပါ့။ α€’ါဆိုရင္ ေပးထားတဲ့ curve : $ \displaystyle 1 - x^2$ α€€ို 0 α€”ဲα‚” α€Šီေပးα€œိုα€€္ရင္ curve ျဖတ္α€žြားတဲ့ $ \displaystyle x$ ၀င္႐ိုးေα€•αšα€€ ထမွတ္ေတြ ရၿပီေပါ့။ ထေပါင္း $ \displaystyle x$ ၀င္႐ိုးα€œိုα‚” ေျပာထားတာα€œိုα‚” $ \displaystyle x$ $ \displaystyle \text{coordinate}$ α€™ွာ ထႏႈတ္ပါα€œာရင္ ထႏႈတ္ တန္α€–ိုးα€€ို α€•α€š္ရပါα€™α€š္။ 

Normal Line α€›ဲ့ equation α€€ို α€›ွာα€–ိုα‚” gradient (slope) α€€ိုα€œα€Š္း α€žိα€›α€™α€š္။ Normal Line ဆိုတာ tangent ေα€•αš ေထာင့္မတ္α€€်α€œိုα‚” tangent gradient α€›ဲ့ ထႏႈတ္α€œွα€”္α€€ိα€”္း (negative reciprocal) ျα€–α€…္ပါα€α€š္။ gradient of tangent =$ \displaystyle m$ ျα€–α€…္α€α€š္ဆိုရင္ normal α€›ဲ့ gradient α€€ $ \displaystyle -\frac{1}{m}$ ျα€–α€…္α€™ွာေပါ့။ α€’ါဆိုရင္ tangent α€›ဲ့ gradient α€€ို α€žိရင္ normal line equation α€€ို $ \displaystyle (y-{{y}_{1}})=-\frac{1}{m}(x-{{x}_{1}})$ ဆိုတာα€”ဲα‚” α€›ွာα€œိုα€€္ရင္ ရၿပီ။ 

Gradient of tangent = $ \displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx}$ ဆိုတာ differentiation from the first principles α€€α€α€Š္းα€€ α€žိၿပီးျα€–α€…္α€™ွာပါ။ tangent α€›ဲ့ gradient α€€ို α€›α€–ိုα‚” ေပးထားတဲ့ curve α€€ို differentiate α€œုပ္ရင္ ရပါၿပီ။

Curve α€€ို differentiate α€œုပ္α€œို႕ရတဲ့ tangent α€›ဲ့ gradient ဆိုတာ general form (curve ေα€•αšα€™ွာα€›ွိတဲ့ α€™α€Š္α€žα€Š့္ေα€”α€›ာα€€ို မဆို ဆိုα€œိုα€α€š္)။ ေα€™းခြα€”္းα€€ ေα€™းထားတာα€€ ထေပါင္း $ \displaystyle x$ ၀င္႐ိုးα€€ို ျဖတ္ေα€žာေα€”α€›ာα€œိုα‚” ဆိုထားα€œိုα‚” α€›ွာထားတဲ့  $ \displaystyle x$ ၀င္႐ိုး ျဖတ္α€™ွတ္ [ $ \displaystyle (x_{1},y_{1})$ α€œိုα‚” ဆိုၾကပါဆိုα‚”] ထစားα€žြင္းα€œိုα€€္α€™ွ α€œိုခ်င္တဲ့ tangent line α€›ဲ့ gradient α€€ို α€›α€™ွာေပါ့။ ဆိုα€œိုတာα€€ $ \displaystyle m={{\left. {\frac{{dy}}{{dx}}} \right|}_{{({{x}_{1}},{{y}_{1}})}}}$ ပါ။

Solution

$ \displaystyle \begin{array}{l}\text{Curve : }y=1-{{x}^{2}}\\\\\text{When the curve cuts the }x-\text{axis, }y=0.\\\\\therefore 1-{{x}^{2}}=0\Rightarrow {{x}^{2}}=1\Rightarrow x=\pm 1\\\\\text{But the required points lies on the }\\\text{positive }x-\text{axis, }\\\\\therefore x=1\\\\\text{Let }({{x}_{1}},{{y}_{1}})=(1,0)\\\\y=1-{{x}^{2}}\Rightarrow \frac{{dy}}{{dx}}=-2x\\\\\therefore m={{\left. {\frac{{dy}}{{dx}}} \right|}_{{({{x}_{1}},{{y}_{1}})}}}={{\left. {\frac{{dy}}{{dx}}} \right|}_{{(1,0)}}}=-2(1)=-2\\\\\text{Hence the equation of normal line at }({{x}_{1}},{{y}_{1}})\ \text{is}\\\\(y-{{y}_{1}})=-\frac{1}{m}(x-{{x}_{1}})\\\\y-0=\frac{1}{2}(x-1)\Rightarrow y=\frac{1}{2}(x-1)\\\\\text{When this normal line meets the curve,}\\\\\frac{1}{2}(x-1)=1-{{x}^{2}}\Rightarrow 2{{x}^{2}}+x-3=0\\\\\therefore (2x+3)(x-1)=0\\\\\therefore x=-\frac{3}{2}\ \text{or}\ x=1\\\\\text{When }x=-\frac{3}{2}\ ,y=\frac{1}{2}(-\frac{3}{2}-1)=-\frac{5}{4}.\end{array}$

$ \displaystyle \text{Therefore, the normal line meets}$
$ \displaystyle \text{the curve again at the point (}-\frac{3}{2},-\frac{5}{4}).$
